Who'd be dark 
                and dank and run 
                the risk of giving, 
                opening up to let 
                the rank smell 
                of mind corruption 
                bind them to 
                another's swank 
                imagination. 

                slither through 
                watch the mind 
                twist and turn 
                through all the 
                rationalisations 
                of might have beens 
                and she asked for its 
                and that shivering 
                spirit in the shower 
                washing the blood 
                away, running down 
                My legs matting 
                the hair, hot copper 
                smell mixed with the 
                steam and a scream 
                running through My 
                mind watching it pool 
                and circle and be swallowed 
                by the hole in the bath 
                and we'll pretend it never 
                happened, never was, 
                wasn't me, I wasn't there 
                and head pressed against 
                the cold tiles 
                while I scrub clean 
                and all the time 
                that wide eyed 
                silent scream just continues....... 


            next?
